That would seem a bit extreme, I was thinking more that they want to lower the barrier to contributions, but who knows, it could be. Both would positively affect the economical aspect of things after all

Real question, why downgrade to a proprietary host?
Finally boolean path effect supports holes!!!
Aaaa, all the nondestructive editing you can do with this omg 🥹
This was too damn funny for what I expected it to be
Man, it can only be frost to finally quench a withered human’s thirst in this scorching hot 😤
QuazarOmegaOPAto KDE@lemmy.kde.social•Is it possible to save screenshots to a specific folder based on focused application?3·4 days agoOh I hadn’t noticed that option, thanks! I think it’ll work pretty well, though I will have to stay within a top level Screenshots directory, it’s already a big improvement

So what was the right shortcut for the screenshot in the end?
Fully agreed, though I must say this, if you truly believe in the spirit of free software and, let’s also be honest and add, can afford not to bend for the convenience of others (maybe you get funded through donations and/or grants), then you have the opportunity to make a piece of software so good, be it application or library, that it’ll be hard for competition to come up with something better and proprietary, that’s how it is for those instances where companies were sued for using them and not providing the source, e.g. Linux and John Deere is the last I remember.
It is that nature of copyleft that the more it spreads, the more it will enable for a culture shift, when people are faced with the inevitable conflict of the idea of keeping everything behind closed doors and not being allowed to if they want to take the easy way out, they might give it an actual thought or they’ll try to be unfair and use without giving back, showing their true greedy colours. I’m not a purist by any means, as much as I’d like to, but that is the kind of world I’d like to live in
QuazarOmegaAto Programming@programming.dev•FUTO License, an alternative to Closed Source3·12 days agoOk that’s good, I was thinking that since Rossman had thrown the term around many times in the video
QuazarOmegaAto Programming@programming.dev•FUTO License, an alternative to Closed Source5·12 days agoInteresting, I understand where they’re coming from, but as others have said, I still feel like it’s shady to keep calling it “open source” when open source is already well defined.
I think they have a noble mission, yet I can’t really say I like their means. Maybe in that “finding a middle ground”, since they’re mostly making consumer software, a lot of that payment part could have been covered by simply providing their releases under a payment on the app distribution channels (Play Store, their website, others?), most people that would pay would do so to avoid going through hoops to get the app for free through other means. That way they could have afforded to be actually open source. Maybe it wouldn’t be as effective though, I can’t know for sure, at the end of the day it’s a battle of ideals

It’s just a brace on same line/new line stylistic choice with extra steps.
About that, I used to also think that brace on new line is clearer, but after seeing a lot more code I have switched sides, both are clear enough to me, so I’d rather have fewer lines
